This is the moment a gunman rushed onto a busy London street and fired shots at horrified passersby who rush to find cover behind parked cars and in nearby shops. 

The shooting, which took place in Tottenham on May 27 last year, happened as part of an ongoing fight between two gangs.

CCTV shows a car driving down the street, before stopping suddenly in front of Ricardo Anderson. He then pulls a gun from his waistband and starts firing at the vehicle.

People in the car tried to shoot back but their gun became jammed as terrified onlookers with children ran for cover. Police said it was lucky no one was killed.

Anderson, 21, was convicted  at the Old Bailey yesterday of possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life, possession of ammunition with intent to endanger life and attempted grievous bodily harm.
